  Hiawatha
Hiawatha was a follower of Deganawidah[?], a prophet and shaman who was credited as the founder of the Iroquois confederacy[?].
Hiawatha was a skilled and charismatic orator, and was instrumental in persuading the Iroquois peoples, the Senecas, Onondogas[?], Oneidas[?], Cayugas, and Mohawks, a group of Native Americans who shared a common language, to accept Deganawidah's vision and band together to become the Five Nations[?] of the Iroquois confederacy.
Longfellow's poem confounds the life stories of Hiawatha and Deganawidah, and also draws on tales of the Algonquian trickster-figure Manabozho[?].

Deganawidah (or Deganawida), known as "The Great Peacemaker," was the traditional founder, with Hiawatha, of the Haudenosaunee (commonly called the Iroquois) confederacy, a political and cultural union of Native American tribes in what is now New York State.
Deganawidah established a council of clan and village chiefs to govern the confederacy.
Led by Deganawidah, and Hiawatha, the Haudenosaunee became the dominant Native American group in the northeast woodlands.

Once again, Deganawidah and Hiawatha approached his village hearing the anguished cry of "Asonkeneeeh?!" "Is it not yet?!" For Hiawatha, having to confront the man who had personally killed his family, it was truly an exercise in forgiveness but the Condolence Ceremony had brought peace to his heart.
Deganawidah wished the federation to extend until all the tribes of men should be included in it and peace should reign everywhere.
As Deganawidah reasoned with Jikonshaseh about her fascination with war encouraging more conflict, they reminded the women of Jamaica that they "must step up to correct those who are in need of correction" and no longer dutifully wash the blood from their men's clothes.

They would distrust their leaders and the principles of peace of the League, and a great white serpent was to come upon the Iroquois, and that for a time it would intermingle with the Indian people and would be accepted by the Indians, who would treat the serpent as a friend.
Deganawidah said that the battle between the white and red serpents opened real slow but would then become so violent that the mountains would crack and the rivers would boil and the fish would turn up their bellies.
Deganawidah said as this light approaches that he would be that light, and he would return to his Indian People, and when he returns, the Indian People would be a greater nation than they ever were before.

Deganawidah came preaching a gospel of peace to the Iroquois during a time of great inter-tribal violence and war.
Legend tells how Deganawidah recruited and converted three key persons who were caught up in the old way of violence and invested them with positions of authority in the new, peaceful order.
The Deganawidah epic is distinctive from the chartering myths of other nations because it found its unity in remembering the establishment of internal peace, rather than in celebrating triumphal military victory over threatening external enemies.
